New A-Spec is up.....Euro Hot Hatches

[Temaze]

Always pay attention to the OCD, I am now 100% certain that they update it with the next Seasonal Events in mind. Top stuff PeeDee, keep em coming...

{Cy}

I'm 100% certain they don't. That's twice we've had Rally OCD's, but still no Rally event
Still, I am grateful for the latest Event. Should be fun. But I really want a Rally event to use all my Rally cars the way God intended.

I know just the car...

 

[Leonidae@MFT]

I used BMW 120i. It fit these tracks like a glove.. well, maybe not the eifel kart track.. then again, there's no REAL car that suits those tracks..

Nice.

Nice seasonal; still w/o DLC Track Spa.

I wish that they would start including the last race on one of the DLC's. If they use special prizes or increased winnings it may help with their sales of it.

Lancia Delta!!!

 

[noisiaturismo]

Eifel (Kart) 110A /5 Laps
1st: Cr.200,000 2nd: Cr.121,800 3rd: Cr.107,000

That... is nice.

Gotta check this one out, seems to be cool.

 

[WJHMH]

I used my classic Mini Cooper on most of the tracks except for Fuji & Rome.

 

[HaylRayzor]

I think A spec hot hatch races let just about anything in as well...

I remember how surprised I was that my max tuned chromeline R8 was eligible for that race.

Sounds like 470PP is way overkill for this seasonal (no surprise). But I bet it will be fun in my turbo'd beatle 1100.

 

[C_Raccoon23]

I'm using the Renault Clio from the new car dealership for this. Stock, comfort softs, all aids off, even ABS. Nice challenge. 👍

 

[will-i-am]

What about that premium volvo C30 r, stock. I think its low 400 pp. Try that when I get home.

The old beetle sounds fun.

 

[Pezzarinho17]

Anyone else get the impression that you can tell exactly where there seasonals are going? All A-spec events listed again, but much higher payouts and a prize to boot...

But what will PD do then after?

 

[tezgm99]

I've only done the race at Fuji so far....won easily in a tuned up Pug 205 turbo 16.

We need a permanent Rally one with 5 events. The last one being a regenerated track every time. That would be cool if they could do that. Add some more F1 races bringing that to 8-10 events.

 

[SlyckTires]

They ought to set the winning standard a little higher for the 'designer' tracks then allow you to permanently download the track when you gold it, as a nice little bonus.

 

[StevenDunn99]

For something different I used the Alfa Romeo Brera Sky Window 3.2 JTS Q4 '06 stock except with SH tyres and, with my poor driving, it made a good challenge. Fuji was fun as I got overtaken down the main straight on 3 occasions, but you gain easily enough through and around the turns.

I just hope PD give us a proper expert challenge for Christmas. Sometimes it is nice to be given a tough challenge rather than to always have to create your own ones.

 

[themartlab]

Did one race with a Samba Bus...tuned of course. What a hatch!

 

[LordZycon]

I did these in a McLaren F1. Lol.
Slight overkill but I really just wanted them out of the way. :-)

London:
Used a stock Audi S3 '02 (Sport Soft). Won by just +01.470!!

It felt so victorious

Try the stock A3 3.2 quattro '03 with SH (416PP).

With my crappy skills I won Fuji and Autumn Ring on first try with each less than 2 seconds, London and Rome on second try with less than 1 second. Perfect match, I'm sure I'll repeat that a few times.

And the A3 is a nice, easy AWD drifter, as well - especially in London.

 

[Blitz24]

I feel like I'm driving a semi using the Volvo against these cars. At Autumn Ring I was easily able to spin any of the AI.

Kart tracks are so boring... But the rest was fun. Great seasonal!

 

[Conza]

I'm so doing this too! I love this car, so much fun! will completely be on my list of cars to do. I think I'll do these tracks 10 or 12 times over with different cars.

Snore Snore, 5 Laps vs zombie AI in another rehashed Aspec event.
Bravo PD, I'm so glad I didnt trade this boring, faiil of a game while it was actually worth something. If any of u actually visiit here, imo don't even make gt6, just make simulators for
Nissan. Play to your strengths because as game designers U royally suck.
- IMO, for the many people here who struggle to distinguish opinion from fact. Like tenacious d and his band of merry delusionalists.

 

[interpunct]

My stock RUF 3400S wins all races with no tunes at all and it has EXACTLY 470 PP
Doing 5 laps in Eifel in under one lap each and winning 400,000 creds is nice. Thanks to the log in bonuses obviously.

Take your racing softs off.. Problem solved. And for the record, no game has prefect AI.

I did the race in sports medium and I only won by 2 seconds and my car was at 470 PP. Take that information and the axl guy will see that sometimes making your car more at a equal footing to the AI makes it much more enjoyable.

I used SH btw, I'm not talking about how fast/not the AI are.
I'm talking about their lack of dymnamic behaviour , they are like scaelectric cars following
the exact same lines, braking in the exact same places EVERY race. Even their mistakes are so heavely scripted that the AI make them in the exact same places over and over.
If u find 'racing' with these dumb zombies fun, fair play but I loathe it. I want more life-like AI NOT perfection, i.e

Fair enough, maybe you should try playing online? Join a series here. But this isn't the place for that discussion.

 

[Smuttysy]

I used the Mercedes 190e for all the events, and although won by massive margins it was really good fun, with that car. I set myself the challenge of lapping the opposition, although so far I haven't managed to do it. >:0)

AAA Game like GT5 should have a great career mode, saying play online is a total cop-out
, and from my exp the online is a total mess of rammers, poorly implemented penalties, disconnections etc etc anyway.
